The Hulk risks everything to help those that he loves most
Following the events of Chaos War, all things have returned to normal:except for the Hulks that is. A-Bomb(Rick Jones) is still critically wounded, Red She-Hulk(Betty Ross Banner) is still mentally unbalanced, and the other Hulks, who just endured so much to save humanity, are still viewed as savage monsters by the very people they fought to save. The Hulk(Bruce Banner) feels that they got the short end of the stick, and goes to confront Hercules to demand that he uses his All-Father powers to make things right for the Hulks, only to learn that by restoring the Universe and all it's people to the way things were, prior to Chaos King's attack,(including Mount Olympus and the gods themselves) Hercules has not only lost his All-Father powers, but his strength and immortality as well. Not satisfied with Herc's explanation, Hulk decides to take his complaint up with the gods themselves, against Hercules' strenuous objections.
The Good
As always, Paul Pelletier's artwork is excellent, and to see the Hulk forced to endure the best the gods of Olympus have to offer, all the while Zeus narrates the Hulks arduous climb up mount Olympus is a visual sight to behold.
The Bad
The story, while interesting, feels rushed. Almost as if Greg Pak knew that this story would be a stretch, especially to the readers. As truly "incredible" the Hulk is, to see him just casually strolling up Mount Olympus, shrugging off some of their most powerful gods and titans, just seems a little above his weight class, despite being the strongest there is.
The Verdict
Not the best Greg Pak has written since coming to Incredible Hulk, but it still has some interesting moments.
